What is the relevant unit cost


Problem: The following standard costs pertain to a component part manufactured by Bor Company:

Direct materials                $ 2
Direct labor                       14
Manufacturing overhead     50
Standard cost per unit      $66

An outside supplier has offered to supply all of the parts needed by Bor Company for $50 each. The 50% of the manufacturing overhead cost that is fixed would be unaffected by this decision. In the decision to "make or buy," what is the relevant unit cost to make the part internally?

  • $41
  • $49
  • $33
  • $53
